The Borrower shall deposit as collected all revenues derived from the operation of the System into a separate account(herein called the "System Fund") which shall be kept separate and apart from all other funds of the Borrower. The System Fund shall be administered as follows: (a) Bond Fund. From the funde in the System Fund the Borrower shall pay into the Bond Fund during each year in which any of the bonds of the authorized issue of which the Bonds are a part (all of such authorized issue, including the Bonde, being hereinafter collectively called the "Bonds Issued") are outstanding, commencing with the date of completion of the Project, an amount equal to 100 per centum of the amount required to meet the interest and principal payments falling due on or before the next maturity date of the Bonds Issued. In addition to such payment, the Borrower shall pay into the Bond Fund from the System Fund in each year ten per centum of the above required amount until such time as there is in the Bond Fund an amount sufficient to meet the principal payments falling due on or before the next maturity date of the Bonds Issued and the interest and principal payments on the Bonds Issued for one year thereafter. The amount required to be paid into the Bond Fund in each year shall be paid in substantially equal monthly payments from the moneys in the System Fund after deductions have been made for paying the reasonable cost of the i 436 operating and maintaining of the System for such month. If the revenues of the System in any month, after deducting for operation and maintenance, are insufficient to make the required payment into the Bond Fund, then the amount of any deficiency in the payment made shall be added to the amount otherwise required to be paid into the Bond Fund in the next month. It is the intent of this Agreement that the sums paid into the Bond Fund shall be in excess of the immediate requirements for payment of interest on and principal of the Bonds Issued until there has been accumulated in the Bond Fund, as a reserve for contingencies, an amount sufficient to service the Bonde Issued for one year. The moneys in the Bond Fund shall be used solely for the purpose of paying interest on and principal of the Bonds Issued until all the Bonds Issued have been retired; provided that, when the total in the Bond Fund is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds Issued outstanding plus accrued interest thereon, the moneys in the Bond Fund may be used to purchase Bonds Issued at a price, exclusive of accrued interest, not exceeding the principal amount thereof. The moneys paid into the Bond Fund shall be deposited in a bank or banks and shall be continuously secured by a valid pledge to the Borrower of direct obligations of the United States of America having an aggregate market value, exclusive of accrued interest, at all times at least equal to such Bond Fund; or the Bond Fund shall be invested in such direct obligations of the United States of America, deposited in escrow under an esorow agreement satisfactory in form, sufficiency and substance to Counsel for the Government, provided, however, that in the ordinance authorising the issuance of the Bonde Issued and in any such escrow agreement, the Borrower may make suitable provision for the sale of such obligations when it shall prove necessary to draw upon the Bond Fund; or if satisfactory to the Finance Division, the Bond Fund may be secured by a surety bond or bonde, such bond or bonds to be acceptable to the Finance Division and satisfactory in form, sufficiency and substance to Counsel for the Government; or if satis factory to the Finance Division, the Bond Fund may be deposited in a bank or banks as a special deposit, upon terms and conditions satisfactory to Counsel for the Government. (b) surplus. Any funds remaining in the System Fund, after provision for the reasonable cost of operating and maintaining the System and after paying the amounts required to be paid into the Bond Fund as above provided, may be used by the Borrower for the purchase of Bonde Issued at not exceeding the principal amount thereof (exclusive of accrued interest) or for any other purpose permitted by law. 10. Additional Bonde; Emcumbrance and Sale. While any of the Bonde Issued are cutstanding, the Borrower shall not issue any additional bonde payable from the revenues of the System unless the lien of such bonds on the revenues of the System is made junior and subordinance in all respects to the lien of the Bonde Issued. In no event, while any of said Bonde Issued are outstanding, will the Borrower mortgage or otherwise encumber the System or any part thereof, or sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any substantial portion of such system. These provisions shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by any holder of any of the Bonds. 11. Maintenance and operation. The Borrower shall maintain the System in good condition and operate the same in an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost. So long as any of the Bonds are outstanding, the Borrower agrees to maintain insurance, for the benefit of the holder or holders of the Bonds Issued, on the System of a kind and in an amount which usually would be carried by private companies engaged in a similar type of business. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Borrower to expend any funds which are derived from sources other than the operation of the System, but nothing herein shall be construed as preventing the Borrower from doing so. 12. Accounts and Periodic Statements. The Borrower shall keep proper books of records and accounts (separate from all other records and accounts) in which complete and correct entires shall be made of all transactions relating to the System. The Borrower shall furnish to the Government so long as it holds any of the Bonds, and to any holder of any of the Bonds, at the written request of such holder, not more than thirty days after the close of each six months fiscal period, complete operating and income statements of the System in reasonable detail covering such six months period, and, not more than sixty days after the close of each fiscal year, complete financial statements of the System in reason437 able detail covering such fiscal year, certified by the Borrower's auditors. 13.
